Oxford Archaeology
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Oxford Archaeology (formerly the Oxford Archaeological Unit) is, along with MoLAS and Wessex Archaeology, one of the big three private archaeological organisations in the United Kingdom.
Founded in 1973, it has grown from its early incarnation to carry out commercial archaeological fieldwork in advance of development across Britain. It has also carried out contracts in continental Europe and in Asia. A registered charitable trust with educational aims, it has various outreach and community archaeology projects running alongside its commercial work.
The registered offices are in Osney Mead, Oxford, southern England. Other offices are Oxford Archaeology North in Lancaster, northern England, and French offices in Zac de la Louvade, Mauguio, southern France.
